Developing for IPhone 4s, 5, 6 and 6+

Question

I've been working on a specific app for a while now and everything was good. But upon all this news of the iPhone 6 and the new Xcode, everything has just become confusing. Using Auto layout and designing for the iPhone have just become the most complicated thing to do. Every time I add constraints my images just triple in size. When all I want is to resize them to fit rationally across all the iPhone platforms(In portrait mode). For example I would like for certain images to grow as I work From the iPhone 5 to the 6+. Does any one know how to do this?

Answer 1

What do you mean triple in size?

Easiest way to have an image view scale is do the following:

• Add it as a subview to the view of your view controller
• Pin it at the top, left and right, leaving height unconstrained
• Add an aspect ratio constraint, so that it can automatically calculate its height based on the width it gets
